taken up, everybody giving the
amount in cents to equal their“ age
Exactly one hundred people attend-
ed. Songs, were sung and Mrs. Ray
Powell played the piano, The young
folks played a few games outdoors
after which a splendid lunch was
served. - The main feature of the
lunch was the big birthday cake

was raught in the act of
stealing a pie. He should have been

Mr. F. W. Crandle gave a splendid

several of the young folks would have

To produce alfalfa and clover seed,
particularly alfalfa, requires a climate
that has bright warm days, with
long hours of sunshine, and dry during
the blooming anc harvesting periods.
Southern Alberta has just such wea-

That unless a remarkable revtsid

000,000 would be necessary to provide
relief for soldiers in Canada during
the next winter, was stated before the
special parliamentary commission on
soldiers’ re-establishment this morn-
ing by C. G. MacNeil, Dominion sec-
retary of the Great War Veterans’
Association.
The crig’is in the unemployment
situation was at hand, he reiterated,
and would reach a peak during the
winter months, Last winter, soldiers
believed to have been in comfortable
circumstances were found on the
verge of starvation, and without “a
eryst of bread” in their homes. Mr.
MacNeil again asserted 250,000 sol-
diers were not re-established and
that 50 per cent. of these were driven
to desperate measures, Approxi-
mately $6,000,000 was spent on relief
last winter.
Mr. MacNeil urged for a compre-
hensive scheme for loans for houses,
education and industrial enterprises,
immediately productive.
Mr. recognized
the importance of this and said de-

Mr. MacNeil also asked for certain

“Don't do that agairt; it’s bad eti-

Next evening Jane appeared with a

it up?"

Nearly everybody in Southwest
Missouri cither knows or has heard
of the Rev. Parker Moon, who for a
full half century has devoted his life
and talents to Sunday school and or-
Sapo work for the Society .of
tiends or Quakers.
“Uncle Parker,” as he is more fa-
miliarly known, came from fine old
ru uaker-stock, and there is not
a better known or more highly re-
spected citizen in that part of the
state. In referring to his remark-
able restoration to fealth by Tanlac,
he said: ae
“About five years ago I suffered
a general breakdown, My principal
trouble was nervous indigestion. My
appetite was very poor and my food
seldom agreed with me, and I had to
live on a very restricted.diet. I suf-
fered a great deal from headaches
and dizzy spells; I had severe pains
across the small of my back and was
badly constipated most of the time.
In fact, I was so weak and rundown
I was not able to attend to my duties.
“This condition made me very nerv-
ous and I could not sleep at night.

A Romance of the Sea
Former Ship’s Boy Gives £20,000 for
A College.
Sir William Reardon Smith, of Car-
diff, Wales, who sent a cheque for
£18,000, making in all a gift of £20,-
000, for the establishment of a Na-
tional School for South Wales at
Cardiff Technical College, has had a
career which is a modern romance of
the sea.
The son of a seafarer, Sir William
started his sea career at the age of
twelve as ship’s boy on a fifty-ton
smack, through successive
ranks to skipper, and eventaully—
sixteen years ago—to shipowner.
Today he thirty-five steam-
ers aggregating neatly 300,000 tons,
and was associated with Lord Glane-
ly in the purchase of Chepstow Na-
tional Shipyards recently.

forebears discovered that
ashes, mixed with water, ‘give a

The reason is tlfat the ash is rich
in soda or potash, both of which are
good for washing, but tg use them
alone is hurtful to fabrics; so. we com-
bine them with fats and make a soap,
but it is the alkalies (soda and pot-
ash) that cut mto the “dirt and grease
